Starring Daniel Radcliffe as 'Weird Al' Yankovic and Evan Rachel Wood as Madonna, the song parodist's life story skewers biopic conventions
Explores every facet of Yankovic's life, from his meteoric rise to fame with early hits like 'Eat It' and 'Like a Surgeon' to his torrid celebrity love affairs and famously depraved lifestyle., which boasts a high enough hit-to-miss ratio in its gags to succeed as a comic biopic but can’t help milking the gags that hit until their freshness evaporates.
Once Radcliffe dons the curly wig and glasses of the grown-up Weird Al, the character gains the freedom to pursue his musical passions, as well as the approval of a more encouraging father figure in the form of the trailblazing radio jester Dr. Demento . With “My Bologna” being the first of many hits for him, Al rockets to the level of fame he’s always dreamed of.
